Yep.. sounds EXACTLY the same! And the doc told me the same thing. Damn. Even the "injury prone" part is becoming my life! Shoulders, knees and now this. My elbows are still good though! :) Thx for sharing how long you were feeling it though. I've been wondering.. sucks ass that...

Well damn.. just got back from the doc. Torn muscle. Goodbye free weights for the next month or two! Grrr.. :mad:

Hey outset2.. you stsill out there? Ever find out what this was? I just got back from a leg workout. Right in the middle of doing the sled, my rib cage popped.. starting to hurt more and more now that I've left the gym. Sneezing seems to make it hurt the most! Just curious what I did?!!

Ah yes.. I recall this feeling well! I used to get it about once a year. It happened mostly at the beginning of my weight-lifting career.. when I was increasing weight the fastest.. and it was the most painful thing ever! I fought with it for over a year once.. and finally, it just got...

The last 3 comebacks I've made have all ended within the first month, with the same injury. My upper back.. right about where my rear delt meets my back, just pops.. OR... it's actually up in my neck. Sometimes, it is such a small pop that I question if it really was THAT happening again...

Not planning on quitting lifting.. or working out. Just wanted to get back into lifting and looking muscular. I've spent the last 2 years doing 2 Ironman triathlons. I'm in great cardio shape.. but my physique is nowhere near what it used to be. I was just looking for a dramatic change in...

Cool.. didn't know this formula. Thx! Regarding my other question though.. what is the 2218 my body needs? Is this supposed to be an optimum number for me to gain muscle/lose fat.. or just a minimum number of calories I should be getting while working out?

Obviously these posts are correct, but.. you sound like you are really wanting a lot more feedback on exactly what you should be eating and when. I know there's a bazillion diet book out there, but go get Body For Life. The guys here are basically doing the same thing as that.. splitting up...

I'm a bit confused what this is showing me? Let's figure it for me.. 39 years old and let's say I hit the gym 6 - 7 X a week. 66 + 1305 (which is 13.7 X 210 lbs, which I believe translates to 95.256 kg) + 180.34 (I'm 5'11) - 265 = 1286 calories my body burns in a given day. X 1.725.. = 2218...

Aha.. so it was funny!! :biggrin::biggrin:

Now that's affordable! :) Many thx!

Any recommended calipers? fat calipers - Google Product Search I know nothing about them and hate to get a pair that don't work at all.... Does one need to spend a few hundred dollars to get a decent pair?

Huh? I was just explaining my diet. Why in the world would you think that was funny? :rose::rose:

Mine's a little different. I do 32 oz. of Mtn. Dew at 6:30 am, 2 chocolate frosted pop-tarts at 8am, candy bar snack around 10, all you can eat chinese at 12:00 with another 32 oz of Mtn. Dew, supper at 5:00pm which is usually a Big Mac or some deep fried chicken fingers (select though) from...

For someone wanting to check body fat every couple days at home, what's the most reliable method?
